Look at both sides of the picture and weigh the benefits and disadvantages of agreeing to a settlement out of court. 

 

  • Pros - when a case goes to court, it can be much more costly and time-consuming, not to mention intimidating to sit before a judge and jury; these factors can make a settlement a more attractive option. 
  • Cons - if you feel the settlement offer isn't fair, or have a desire to tell explain and document what happened, it might be better to take the case to court. 

In either event, though, you'll want the advice of an attorney in making your decision and pursing your settlement. If your injury occurred in Georgia, the legal team at a Forest Park injury law firm can investigate your case and provide helpful legal advice on how to proceed.
